If you prefer Venmo you can use his wife's account to support him directly | kotakuinaction |
Or if you want you can get one of his rings | kotakuinaction |
I'll say that he himself doesn't really think this is due to his recent videos and I agree. I personally think YT fucked up in some idiotic way. | kotakuinaction |
controversial to leftist youtubers should just do a merch shop and mug club type deal. Or wait until Twitter turns to X and starts hosting videos with monetization | kotakuinaction |
Hopefully, he moves over to odysee. | kotakuinaction |
You Tube has too much power. The irony is that Metatron is such a fan of the Roman Empire and this is exactly the kind of casually evil thing they used to do. | kotakuinaction |
I used to follow him, got bored when he just started doing cracked debunking videos | kotakuinaction |
Still, doesn't deserve to have this happen to him. | kotakuinaction |
Funny how Youtube removed visible dislikes with the "prevent mass disliking" excuse which is a complete non-issue compared to mass reporting. Shows you where their priorities lie. | kotakuinaction |
Not sure what's going on but I doubt it's about wokeism. I'm pretty sure The Critical Drinker and people like Ben Shapiro don't get demonetized and they are much more vocal and critical of modern media (and they lean right). | kotakuinaction |
Isn't it more likely that YouTube is really trying to optimize their costs by cutting down content creators? | kotakuinaction |
I can't stand his quantitative method, but it's part of the conversation. Needless to say, I come from the angle that casts doubt about absolute truths, which he seems adamant about. Still. I watch him because he is very informative, and am trying to guess why he has been demonetized. I agree with OP's assessment on why he has been demonetized, which is very very problematic. He did both videos in a 'scientific' way with sources and all (I disagree with his method but it's not right to demonetize him. At all)... am sick and tired of cancellation and the silencing of oppositional views... | kotakuinaction |
Do hope things work out. It was his job and nobody should lose their job without proper cause. | kotakuinaction |
Funny how so much of the chat here is "woke is to blame" though. If that was the case so many channels would be taking that kind of hit wouldn't they? | kotakuinaction |
Excellent. Now do the same with all the other dumbasses. The quartering, critical drinker, all those idiots. | kotakuinaction |
Is it fixed already? I'm seeing "includes paid promotion" at the top of his videos | kotakuinaction |
Go antiwoke, go broke | kotakuinaction |
Go woke go broke LOL | kotakuinaction |
Dont care | kotakuinaction |
If the linked video is longer than 5 minutes, don't forget to include a summary as per [rule 4]( | kotakuinaction |

Barbie | kotakuinaction |
Thanks, I subscribed to his channel. Seems great | kotakuinaction |
His videos probably got mass reported. Hopefully he sorts it out with YouTube | kotakuinaction |
Yeah, I looked at the comments when those 2 dropped and there was a TON of seething in them. Definitely sounds like the hate brigade mass reporting him. | kotakuinaction |
Greek/Roman being a homosexual paradise is always ignoring the reality. It was more about the dominant male raping the weaker ones, typically slaves, to use them as glorified flesh lights. It wasn't considered homosexual, in the same way prison works using "any port in a storm" rules. | kotakuinaction |
Don’t you love how the woke crowd turns to history as a defense only to realize no examples actually exist… so they just decide to make up their own history lol. | kotakuinaction |
People don’t seem to get that the pockets of societies that accepted male homosexuals, that acceptance really only applies to the top so to speak, not necessarily the bottom… there’s a lot of intersecting social dynamics to consider when evaluating how things were viewed in the past… | kotakuinaction |
It is definitely the gay video | kotakuinaction |
> Cleopatra | kotakuinaction |
But did she identify as a woman? | kotakuinaction |
Remember to thank the Raja: | kotakuinaction |
But both of those points are historical fact... it's not even debatable, unless we're debating with people who are literally projecting delusional fantasies onto reality itself. | kotakuinaction |
Definitely why then. | kotakuinaction |
He flew too close to the globo-h0m0 Sun. | kotakuinaction |
Metatron is an international treasure. | kotakuinaction |
Since he said youtube is trying to prevent fraud, my tin foil hat theory is telling me youtube did because of all the tesla crypto hacks that have been going on the site. I could be wrong about it | kotakuinaction |
lol wut | kotakuinaction |
For a second i thought you meant Shad did this. | kotakuinaction |
> thoroughly debunking the narrative that Ancient Greece was this homosexual paradise | kotakuinaction |
I mean, he does leave out the existence of Theben and the Sacred Band. And at 20:20 he starts listing all the straight gods (implying that all gods are straight) and corrects some facts being left out, while he himself leaves out the fact that Zeus had a male lover, Apollo had multiple male lovers, and Heracles was in love with his nephew. | kotakuinaction |
Thanks, never heard about him, but started watching his review of the Cleopatra documentary. I love how he opens with a small rant about how Romans in this 'documentary' all wear wristbands. Nice to see someone caring this much about historical depictions. Will be interesting to watch his other videos too. | kotakuinaction |
He also has some pretty good arguments about the whole race thing, which is just generally really dumb and arrogant. Feel a bit bad for general Americans, since the rest of the world will now have more reason to think everyone over there are ignorant and conceited like these idiot Hollywood types. I know there are plenty of sane people in the US who dislike this nonsense, but you got to admit it does make US culture look pretty bad when this is how their elite portrays historical figures and cultures from the rest of the world. | kotakuinaction |
And if I was Egyptian I'd probably be kind of pissed off. | kotakuinaction |
>one explaining how Cleopatra wasn't black | kotakuinaction |
That's a very stupid and weird hill to die on, *for wokesters* (edited) if that's the case. | kotakuinaction |
Wait, Shad? Is that the Shadiverse guy or the dude who draws cursed porn? | kotakuinaction |
Second video sounds like a must-watch, thank you. I fucking hate that narrative, and I love Ancient Greece. | kotakuinaction |
As a historian myself I personally disagree to an extent with his take on Ancient Greece, because as he's said before, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. HOWEVER, I hate what has been done to his YouTube channel. He made great and interesting content that, along with Shadiversity and Overly Sarcastic Productions, are some of my favorite history related content to watch on YouTube. He was never aggressive or malicious with his takes, he was well researched and always cited his sources. People should be allowed to engage in good faith discussion on topics like historical fact vs popular perception of history without fear of their life being destroyed. I really hope his channel is remonetized and I hope YouTube will get their heads out of their asses sooner rather than later. | kotakuinaction |
> thoroughly debunking the narrative that Ancient Greece was this homosexual paradise | kotakuinaction |
It's full of obvious and cherry-picked errors: see 134o6jg | kotakuinaction |
Metatron has been appearing on badhistory more and more over the years. I think he's chasing that youtube clout and abandoning his research. | kotakuinaction |
Anyway, there's plenty of anti-woke content on youtube that isn't demonitized. Why would this one be? | kotakuinaction |
Ah, so he got demonetized for spreading hate speech and lies. Gotchya. Thanks for the info. | kotakuinaction |
[removed] | kotakuinaction |
Metatron has been debunked on several occasions. He just spews the nonsense that everybody was white. | kotakuinaction |
Intelligence and critical thinking are not popular nowadays. Obey and consume. | kotakuinaction |
heh, cum laude | kotakuinaction |
Yet with all that education he is making YouTube video, clickbait thumbnails included… | kotakuinaction |
>some woke YouTube fuck did it. | kotakuinaction |
TikTocker. There's a metric ton of zoomer and blue haired speds on Tiktok who hate him, Shad and Skallagrim because they don't buy the new woke archeological and historical narratives. | kotakuinaction |
Archive all the good vids you can till then. | kotakuinaction |
Its headquarters, right? | kotakuinaction |
Elon better hurry up then with Twitter. | kotakuinaction |
LOL No, they're running a monopoly, they've won, the woke have won, many, many years ago. | kotakuinaction |
Go woke go broke is a cope. | kotakuinaction |
The only things I like about YouTube are app integration on multiple devices and high bandwidth. | kotakuinaction |
Their polices to hamper voices they don't like but withdrawal of funding or hiding videos by stealth is worrying. There is nothing worse than a uniform voice without discussion. It is called propaganda. | kotakuinaction |
He literally told of real black woman queens as a jab to the ”documentary”. If anything his video should be more empowering than the insult to reality that the Cleopatra show is | kotakuinaction |
Ask Reddit, Tiktok or Twitter about the validity of shield maidens then ask a historian....The former will seethe hard. | kotakuinaction |
wait ..did hotep suddenly get turned into a new pejorative/derogatory meaning outside of where its been used for 3 decades? | kotakuinaction |
​ | kotakuinaction |
but yea hoteptwitter was big mad about the cleopatra film being shit on ,while blackpeopletwitter as usual made fun of them for being tinfoil hat conspiracy theory history revisionists | kotakuinaction |
Exactly. And they try to gaslight us constantly by saying, "cancel culture doesn't exist. It's something right wingers made up". No it exists. I know multiple Youtubers I followed who are anti woke who have been hit at some point or other like Metatron has been maybe just not to his extreme on every single video but they've been hit several times with complaints, reports and petty moves likely done by the blue haired woke people offended by their common sense videos that don't coddle feelings overs facts. | kotakuinaction |
I love it too cause they are out in full force trying to get people to stop using Woke. | kotakuinaction |
Which means the term is working. :p | kotakuinaction |
> with too much historical facts | kotakuinaction |
Read the thread on r/ badhistory (I'm not allowed to link other subs here) on this topic. Metatron is also conveniently leaving out a lot of historical facts. | kotakuinaction |
[removed] | kotakuinaction |
Up with you. | kotakuinaction |
Yeah. If it was the case of the type of videos he puts out it would have happened a long time ago. Or even happened when he was talking about "The Woman King" and how they tried to rewrite the history of a slavery enriched country as being heroes. | kotakuinaction |
Or rumble, odysee is horrible on mobile | kotakuinaction |
That just refers to him doing an ad in the video afaik. He is often sponsored by AtlasVPN. | kotakuinaction |
More like "be normal, we're going to destroy you" but hey, that has been the M.O. of the left for years now. | kotakuinaction |
But what would I expect from bad faith actors. | kotakuinaction |
If you're into this kind of popular historical videos, I also recommend the channels Shadiversity, Skallagrim, scholagladiatoria and Lindybeige. These guys (+ Metratron) produce some of the best content of this kind on YT. | kotakuinaction |
What a shame there’s the Streisand effect :( | kotakuinaction |
Of course they did. | kotakuinaction |
The first thing a soygoblin will do is to try to silence you, every time. | kotakuinaction |
A rare unicorn may be willing to actually talk to you, but only after every attempt to silence you has failed. | kotakuinaction |
>His videos probably got mass reported | kotakuinaction |
How dare he use facts and logic to argue that Cleopatra was white. | kotakuinaction |
One of the (many) reasons Nero was so hated by the populous of Rome was because he was openly a bottom. | kotakuinaction |
They borrow so much from the Soviets and Maoist China. | kotakuinaction |
[removed] | kotakuinaction |
And it was often man boy not man man | kotakuinaction |
It is also important to remember that the more prominent homosexual groups in history were all generally outcasts. | kotakuinaction |
For example, the Sacred Band of Thebes were largely looked at as creepy weirdos even by those who supported them. | kotakuinaction |
And the upper class or military may have different morals than the common people. | kotakuinaction |
Heheh not really the bottom | kotakuinaction |
